NFL player Colin Kaepernick, centre, started a protest against police violence by kneeling during the US National Anthem in 2016.

"I am really, really pleased they're making him the face because it shows people are standing up against rubbish".

James, who features in the ad narrated by Kaepernick that is scheduled to air during the National Football League season opener between the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons, said that he stood by the sports giant during at a NY fashion show and awards ceremony.

The younger Trump replicated Nike's ad nearly to a T - the words that appeared across Kaepernick's face in the black and white photo were now over President Trump's: "Believe in something".

Separately, an analysis by Tickertags, a company that tracks the frequency of keywords on social media, found that mentions of "boycott" in conjunction with Nike were falling. "But I think as far as sending a message, I think it's a bad message and a message that shouldn't be sent".

Stephen Martin, owner of Prime Time Sports, says Nike merchandise makes up 40-50 percent of the store's inventory, including popular and pricey items.

In many ways, Nike's Kaepernick alignment - and the chatter surrounding it in barbershops, around workplace water coolers, and on the internet - underscores differing perspectives in America about patriotism, protests and even the best way for a company to market its goods.
